Some information may have been translated by Google Translate

The Sandie Waterfall, located on the west side of Xinqiaotun, Hurun Town, Jingxi County, can be said to be a wonder. The waterfall is formed by the sudden fall of the flowing water from the head of the cliff. The cliffs there are three-layered, hence the name. The cloth is about 40 meters high and 20 meters wide, and it pours all year round, especially in the rainy season. The water is flying straight down, like a dangling jade jumping bead. The sound of the water rushing from the waterfall in the distance can be heard from miles away. Moreover, the scenery of the waterfall varies with seasons, weather, sunrise and sunset, which is even more unpredictable.
